Join us at Florida’s hardest and biggest road race! 85 miles of racing with complete police-moderated intersections. And a medium course of 45 miles at a more casual pace. Fully stocked aid stations and mechanical and SAG van support. A finisher medal & post race meal for everyone!

GFNY Florida race week activities take place at the Hardee County Agri Civic Center. You will be picking up your race packets and enjoying the post-race festivities, music and awards at the Civic Center. The start and finish will take place just outside the entrance to the property, making the race day planning for you and your supporters very easy. 

From the Civic Center, the course travels on rural roads with very low traffic, for your maximum safety and enjoyment, and to let you focus on your race. The core of the course is a stunning 40-mile loop taking you through picturesque state-preserved plantation land, ranches, orange groves and scrub habitat along low traffic and well-paved roads. 

First you’ll ride about 3 miles to the start of the loop. To start the loop goes south for 15 miles, then 5 miles west, 4 miles north west, 6 miles east, 8 miles north, and 2 miles east to complete this loop through the heart of Hardee’s tranquil nature. Hardee is an ideal host for GFNY because of its many connecting roads, low traffic, and sincere warm-hearted demeanor of locals. You won’t find a course like this anywhere else in Florida! It’s a treat!

Long route riders repeat the loop a 2nd time before heading back to the Hardee Agri Civic Center.

Come and enjoy your visit to Hardee County and the festive atmosphere of this enchanting race.
